Editorial Reviews

Review

"Just In Case is just what's needed to prepare yourself and your community. Y2K is a vast mirror, reflecting our values and the kind of technological societies we have created. Let's use Y2K's lessons to rewire our technological networks to recreate local neighborliness and self-reliance, prosperous home-grown economies, and culturally richer communities. This book will guide you along the way." -- Hazel Henderson, futurist, author of Creating Alternative Futures

"This book doesn't pretend that someone (i.e., the government) is going to step in and take care of you. Instead, it emphasizes personal responsibility and working within communities. The advice it gives is very down-to-earth and sensible-preparations we should all be making anyway." -- Valerie Quigley, coordinator of emergency services, Sheriff's Office of Emergency Services in Marin County, CA

"This book speaks volumes about the breadth and depth of the coming millennium rollover. Here in one source is clear, sharp, and actionable information for everyone." -- Arthur Young, former assignments editor for ABC TV News

"Y2K's threat is a function of procrastination and denial. Don't procrastinate-read this book." -- Richard Landes, Ph.D., director of the Center for Millennial Studies, Boston University
